Don't bring that crap to an OU telecast. Get it right!

You didn't know? Boise has won 30 home games in the past week. Thought someone told you that.

The have the longest home winning streak if you don't count their Humanitarian Bowl loss on the blue turf of their home field...

The NCAA counts home bowl games as home games, as they should. Miami has a bunch of Orange Bowl wins in their RECORD 58 game home streak.

No one cares except Ore-Ida. Those weren't wins - they were tater tots eating contests.

Oh I agree....it's just more "fun with statistics" and extrapolating them out to a suit whatever your view is. The fact that OU and the Whorns never play each other at home helps out such streaks for both schools.

I actually agree with their interpretation of the streak. The bowl game should not count for or against you. It's technicially a neutral site and technicalities should matter. In addition, tickets are not distributed the same as a normal home game so you can argue that it's not just a technicality.

But the only interpretation that matters is the NCAAs!

Take down that Boise State stat and put in a retraction for the next time OU plays.
